Sherman, exactly where would the Yankees put Reyes???

Mets trading Reyes to the Yankees would be one of the worst mistakes the franchise has ever made. It doesn’t even matter who they would get back.
They’d play him at shortstop. Where else would they play Reyes?

Did Jeter retire?

The Yankees wish he did. How good does thatexpensive 3-year deal look now?

Just imagine if they’d given him what he wanted!

Based on his performance this year I’d say so.

Dump Posada,
and have Jeter and Arod rotate between 3B an DH, while Reyes plays SS.
not the worst idea in the world to protect the legs of guys you’re paying big money to in to their late 30’s

Posada will not be back next year. Perhaps it’s best for the Yankees to put Jeter at DH his final 2 years. The only problem is, Eduardo Nunez is nothing special, and is terrible defensively.

Apparently you haven’t heard of Derek Jeter. Who as a Yankee fan I have always had respect for, but I strongly wish they had not had given him a 3 year deal.

Joel Sherman has a personal bias against the Mets. I have been reading the post for the past 15 yrs and he almost always has something negative to write about the Mets. Granted the Mets arent a great team by any stretch of the imagination but his writing of the mets comes off as more a personal thing than it does anything else.

Joel Sherman needs to find a new job. Perhaps going back to Yankees beat writer would be better for him. He clearly can’t get past his closet racism and snobbery when it comes to covering other teams.

Twins really need to make a move for Jose Reyes.

I’m shocked that anyone thinks that Jeter can be put anywhere else but shortstop. If he doesn’t hit well enough at SS to negate his lack of range there, he becomes an even worse liability at other positions where he has never played and which require better offense.
As for the suggestion of putting him at DH, well that is like throwing away the position which exists purely for GOOD offensive players.
I love Derek Jeter, but he has to hit enough to stay at short or sit on the bench. I’m still a little hopeful for him as his at-bats lately are producing more line drives and less swinging bunts.
